Hello people of Earth, Mars, and Canada! Here I am again with yet again another story but this time we're going to do it in song! Doesn't that sound great! Ok so this story is set in the Iron King at the Elysium. And I just wanted to apologize now if this wasn't exactly how it went. I haven't read the Iron King for a wile know and I just loaned the book to my friend so I couldn't go back and look up what happened in the chapter. So yeah sorry for that.
Disclaimer: I own nothing! it all belongs to Julie Kagawa (I wish I owned Ash but sadly I do not):
I also do not own this song! it belongs to Taylor Swift
Oh yeah! this song is Enchanted by Taylor Swift just in case you missed that ;)
There I was again tonight
Forcing laughter, faking smiles
Same old tired lonely place
Walls of insincerity,
Shifting eyes and vacancy
Vanished when I saw your face
Tonight the Summer Court was holding the Elysium, and as the daughter of Oberon I was forced to go. The night seemed to drag on forever, with no end. And to make matters worse I knew absolutely no one. I spent most of the Elysium forcing laughter and faking smiles. When the Winter Court arrived ,with Queen Mab, everyone went off with their own conversations. No one said a word to me the entire night, all I got were shifting eyes trying to figure out who I was. It wasn't until I saw him. Prince Ash of the Unseelie Court. He was, with no question, gorgeous with his raven black hair and silver eyes. I couldn't help but stare at him. Everything around me vanished when I saw his face.
Your eyes whispered, "Have we met?"
Across the room your silhouette
Starts to make its way to me
The playful conversation starts
Counter all your quick remarks
Like passing notes in secrecy
When my eyes met with his my stomach flutter wildly. Part of me hoped he wouldn't remember me, the girl he almost killed. But at the same time the other half of me earned for his attention. I know I shouldn't fall for someone like him, but my heart couldn't help itself.
"So this is Oberon's half-breed daughter?" Ash chuckled when he reached me.
"Prince Ash, what do I do the honor?" I said trying to keep cool. The last thing I wanted to do was embarrass myself in front of both courts.
"A dance." he smiled holding out a hand. I was about to take his hand but I hesitated. What if this was some sort of trick?
"Why would I dance with you? You tried to kill me." I said in a stern but calm voice. But this only made Ash smile more.
"That was then, and this is now. And it's tradition in Elysium that a son and daughter of opposite territories dance with each other, to demonstrate the goodwill between the courts." And with that he led me onto the dance floor.
"But I can't dance." I admitted a little embarrassed.
"You're Oberon's daughter of course you can dance. Just listen to the music." Ash said putting his hands on the small of my back. I hesitated but only a second before I looped my arms around his neck. We danced slowly to the music, my movements were swift and graceful like his. This moment seemed almost too perfect.
I smiled and took a deep breath. "Is this where you kill me?" I asked. The corner of his lips curled. "If you like," he murmured, and a flicker of amusement crossed his face. "Though it's gotten far too interesting for that."
The lingering question kept me up
2 AM, who do you love?
I wonder 'til I'm wide awake
And now I'm pacing back and forth
Wishing you were at my door
I'd open up and you would say, "Hey,
It was enchanting to meet you,
All I know is I was enchanted to meet you."
The one question that lingered on my mind was does Ash love me? Or could it be just another one of those faery tricks? I wished I could tell him how I feel. I wished I could tell him that I was enchanted to have meet him.
This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
This night is flawless, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, dancing around all alone
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you
This night was perfect, flawless even. But I couldn't help but wonder if Ash knew how I felt about him. Just the thought of him made me blush uncontrollably. He left me wonder struck wishing I was still dancing with him now. I know I'll spend forever wondering if he knew.
This is me praying that
This was the very first page
Not where the story line ends
My thoughts will echo your name
Until I see you again
These are the words I held back
As I was leaving too soon
I was enchanted to meet you
Please don't be in love with someone else
Please don't have somebody waiting on you
Please don't be in love with someone else
Please don't have somebody waiting on you
I know that this is not the end of our story. My thoughts could only think of one thing and that is Ash. I prayed every night that he wasn't in love with someone else. And I hoped he didn't have somebody waiting on him. Because know that I've meet Ash I would never be able to forget him no matter how hard I try. His image will forever be burned into my mind and heart.
I hoped you liked it! And if you did then please, please, please review and tell me what you think!
